1. Thank you for the sincerity of your friendship shown,
For I am truly grateful from my heart's core.

2. By Allah, I did not sell you my love for another,
If I did, I would be the one betrayed for sure.

3. But the king's command must take its course,
And every slave is bound by his ruler's law.

4. Though our bodies may now be apart,
Our hearts are still tied by affection's cord.

5. I ask Allah to keep your joy intact,
For true joy in Allah's praise is secure.
